Do you have a guide you can recommend for Lemmy users who are not that aware of the settings mentioned in the second paragraph but would like to be?
Not exactly a guide but there is this wonderful github repo.
Some advice to give it a try: Open firefox (desktop only) in the search box type
about:profilesand create a new profile to put theuser.jsin without affecting your main profile.This github repo is rather complex and there is alot to read and grasp, but it’s a very good starting point to harden your firefox.
You can also give a look at the arkenfox user.js.
Those are complex user.js but you can produce your own with the tweaks you need, in case you need video confercence or what else.
Thanks a lot! I’ll take a look and learn something new
